Song Contest (Reprise)

[ratammer]

Congrats, you two!

[commodorejohn]

Ah, very nice :D Lots of great stuff this round.

[somitomi]

Congrats Fred and thanks everyone. I'm gonna let Fred do the next round if he wants to

[Freddino18]

The theme for the next round will be a capella.

Some instrumentals are allowed, but the majority of the piece must be performed orally (For example, a supporting background drum or a kazoo solo are admissible, but something like a Dubstep song where the majority of the vocals are heavily modified and computerized is not allowed)

Deadline for admissions is 6 AM UTC on the 24th

[Freddino18]

Three days left!

[Freddino18]

I realize that I stated the deadline incorrectly, 24 hours left

Alright! Bit of an odd one this time as one player couldn't decide, but it turned out that if they did, it'd either hand the victory decisively to myself or leave me tied with another player. So we'll just offer a hearty congratulations to somitomi and move on before the cops come 'round asking about where we were on the night of the 30th...!

[ratammer]

Congratulations, somi!

[Freddino18]

Wait, we're allowed to play in our own rounds?

[somitomi]

Thanks, everyone. I'll give myself until the evening to come up with something

Wait, we're allowed to play in our own rounds?

uh, yeah, that's always been that way, the right to host has been passed on to second place fairly regularly becuase the host came first.

[somitomi]

Ok, next round is for Sleepy Songs, whatever you think that is. Bedtime is the 28th of September, so tuck your music into bed before then

[somitomi]
